I had some life stressors in January and weight loss and logging my food was just not a priority. I gained back almost all the weight (10 pounds or so) so I have decided to go back on. Most of it is just actually seeing what the calorie count is, the other is that I was "letting myself go" and not watching what I ate (or…

I am diabetic (insulin-resistant) and working on not being obese. Down 12 pounds so far. Going slowly.

My wishlist is a standing desk or possibly a treadmill desk, but I have to get it for myself, so it may be a while. Maybe if I put some money away for every pound I lose or every day I am under budget calorie wise? ?? ?

Sometimes you need to just have a day and eat, so that your metabolism kicks back in, and burns the calories. It sounds like your body is going into "starvation mode" Change it up a little - just my opinion. :)

Hi: I don't drink as much as I used to, but I'm trying to lose weight without having to give up my wine in the evening. I say 2 glasses, but they are BIG glasses. I try to save the calories from something else, but it also affects my willpower in the evening to snack.

Sweet potatoes in the colder weather, now switching to roasted veggies -broccoli, asparagus, etc. with garlic

Wow! That is impressive. I reread your original post and I was reading it to say that you did that in a day, but you actually hit that as a milestone. Sorry for the disbelief!

You guys are shaming me - wait until it is 60 degrees out, and I take my dog for a long walk in the woods :)

1,500,000 ???

10,189 = 4.39 miles. 15 minutes on the treadmill. 2 inches of snow coming tonight. :(

Amazing how many steps I can get in just going downstairs for laundry (1 trip to put it in washer, one trip to put it in dryer, separate trip to put in load #2 and take out load #1 and bring it upstairs). Not to mention the trips I make when I forget what I went down for :wink:

I'm in! Been walking over10,000 steps according to my fitbit. Thinking of raising my goal to 12 k. Sometimes I'm walking circles in my dining room to get my 10 K before midnight! To the person who got a dog, that was my motivation. She takes me out 3 times a day, and she likes to run!

I'm interested in knowing if anyone feels that the diet soda makes you hungrier. I hate water, but I use a little fruit juice or the liquid flavoring (Mio or similar) to flavor it. Would that do the same thing?

I love my Bloody Mary - it counts as 2 vegetables with the V8! Also, I tend to cut back in other areas to allow myself my nightly white wine. Sometimes I will do extra treadmill time to make "room" for the calories.

Once I get 10K for a consistent period of time (10 days?) I'm moving my goal to 12K, then possibly to 15K. Most of it is accomplished while walking the dog, 3-4 x a day, as I have a sedentery job. Really need a treadmill desk! :)

Tell me about it while I'm walking circles in my dining room at 11:30 at night to get my 10 K by midnight. Huge motivating factor, and as has been said before, any steps are better than no steps. I also heard the "30 minute continuous exercise, or don't bother" but then I have also heard, every little bit you move helps,…
